The Home Town Sheet
Bv Charles Frederick
Wadsworth.
Editors Note: This was first
printed tn 1920 in The Publish-
ers Auxiliary
Il isn't a very big paper, as
newspapers go these days.
But its little town it has pul on
the map in a hundred different
ways.
It has no leased wire in its of-
fices. nor lour decked presses
to lim-
its papei comes just in a
bundle, and not by the carload,
or ton.
But it has claims to distinc-
tion. and which it will always
make good:
Its limit is only the limit of
how people do as they should.
It boosted for incorporation,
tor grading and sidewalks and
trees-
Schools-teacliers-and helped
train the boys that America sent
overseas.
It argued tor health and for
sewers, and places for kiddies
to play- ’ ■
For parks and clean liv mg and
thinking, and brightened the
mv.ihd's way.
It befriended the churches
and lodges, the band and the
choi’al club. too.
And helped with the flour mill
and coal mines and all that gixxl
citizens do
To push a good town to the
front row where people vv ill see
it and smile
For a live town induces good
nature-good nature eliminates
Hile.
Il mentioned all the babies and
spread their fame tar and vynle.
Inspired them through lite and
then said a good word tor them
when they died.
The crops of the neighbor
hood alway s came in tor a com-
pliment. too.
And the front office had an
exhibit of wheal, oats and bat
fey on v icvv
A mention was made of the
flowers, the orchards and
lawns and the grass.
And once in a while an
afkhowledgeiMient of a "passel
of garden sass ."
Ihe world was told ol the
chickens and tin key s that sing-
led about.
And even about the red heifer
that broke the fence dowTi*a)5d
got out. -
New buildings and all stujh
improvements were specially
played up strong. ■’
New paint on a fence and hgiv
porches were always gixni Tpr
a song. >
Ihe p.ipei is still doing dilfy
as neighbor, guide mentor aijd
friend. ’ ".!
But the pathway is crooked
and thorny and many ha>e
come to the end ;
Unnoiii ished and starved add
neglected as though they’ Ifad
nevei been
Boosting and sliuggling and
boosting, determined, with lipr
help, to vvIn.
But in tact, the papei's cine
of us. and one that we Ide to
greet;
So hats of I' three cheers' and
